Overall it was good , I will be going back but not to a buffet. I prefer more of a full service but this was fine for Christmas with no plans.

We booked a last minute reservation after our first choice fell through. We really enjoyed the food and the view! The family ordered grilled halloumi and watermelon for apps. Salads I recommend the burrata and papaya. For entrees I recommend kebabs, caccio e Pepe, branzino. The side of mushrooms went really well with the noodles.

Canoe House is a special place. The food is truly remarkable. The setting is gorgeous. Our server Dean was outstanding. He really helped make the experience special. He knows the menu and all the ingredients in great detail and was flexible in the way we ordered - allowing is to get half orders of various dishes so that we could create interesting combos. The restaurant is very expensive without a doubt. But they deliver in every way.
